Fake electors have retained central positions overseeing ballots in battleground states as the nation prepares for the 2024 general election, a report by the Associated Press revealed Monday.
Among them is Jim Hindle, who is set to be arraigned in Nevada Monday following accusations that he signed documents to overturn Donald Trump's loss in that state in 2020.
And yet he’s overseeing elections in the state’s Storey County, according to the report.
Hindle told The Associated Press he had no intention of discontinuing his role after the arraignment.
The AP’s report also found fake electors involved in running ballots in Wisconsion, Arizona and Pennsylvania.
It names Bob Spindell, who is on Wisconsin’s election commission despite agreeing to a settlement this month in which he admitted being “part of an attempt to improperly overturn the 2020 presidential election results.”
Fake elector Jake Hoffman is chairman of the Senate Elections Committee in Arizona, while another, Anthony Kern, leads the Judiciary Committee. The state’s attorney general is conducting a fake elector investigation that involves them, though nobody has yet been charged.

"Hoffman’s position makes him a gatekeeper for virtually all election-related legislation under consideration," reported the AP.
In Allegheny County in Pennsylvania, Sam DeMarco is a member of the election board despite being interviewed by the FBI last year over his role in trying to deny the 2020 vote. No charges have yet been brought.
Several fake electors attended Trump’s rally in Nevada on Sunday, at which the former president said they had been treated unfairly.
